What makes Paris’ Iron Lady: A Self-Guided Audio Tour a unique experience ?
Starting in Trocadéro Gardens, you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of the Tower from all the spots where professional photographers take their customers to make life-long memories.
While you walk from the gardens to the Pont de Bir-Hakeim (Bir-Hakeim Bridge), I’ll tell you about the former Trocadéro Palace and the current Palais de Chaillot (Chaillot Palace), which houses various museums, including the Musée de l’Homme.
You’ll cross over the Bir-Hakeim bridge and see some of Paris’ lesser-known sites.
From the bridge, you’ll see the man-made Île aux Cygnes (Swan Island).
From the bridge, you’ll see La France Renaissante (France Reborn), a statue made in the likeness of Joan of Arc that commemorates the end of World War II.
Stroll along the Promenade d’Australie, a dirt path next to the Seine River, on your way to the Tower.
The Eiffel Tower is among the world’s most recognizable structures and most visited monuments. But when it was built in 1889, it was criticized by local intellectuals and artists who were against the design and scale of the project. On this walking tour, I’ll share the history of Paris’ tallest and best-loved monument and show you the ideal vantage points to see the city’s Iron Lady.
